So my biibs are uneven. I know that with my first I nursed more on my left. she was really colicy and I would bring her into bed and put her on that side so my husband wouldnt knock her at night, so she nursed more on that side then the right. Now that I am nursing w my 2nd do you think that if I nurse a little more on the righ they might even out? Silly question but just curious :-) thanks ladies
I hope so b/c I'm in the same boat! I'm looking forward to hearing responses. I told my husband that if they don't even out, he needs to buy me a new pair!
boobs are never even, its just more pronounced while BF. They will be the same as before when you wean.
No, not really. Usually women have uneven breasts even without ever being pregnant or nursing. The unevenness will return once you stop nursing most likely if it does even out a bit if you do as you say.
Generally the unevenness isn't as noticeable to everyone else like it is to you. Also, I'd not do anything drastic such as plastic surgery until you are 100% done with having children.
Start nursing your daughter on the breast that is the least full (smallest) then end on the fuller side. Babies are more vigorous nursers in the first few minutes. This is a common problem I've had in nursing all 3 of my kids. Best wishes. R., nurse-midwife mom of 3
Ha Im in the same boat, I think its more wishful thinking that nursing more on one side will even it out. I think surgery would be the only thing to fix it. Im glad my DD and DH is the only one who gets to see my uneven boobs!
There are no 2 parts of your body that are naturally EXACTLY the same size... One foot tends to be bigger than the other, One boob, one hand... Usually it is very little difference, but then inflate them with liquid and stare at them often and you notice it most... lol This is really the time that women obsess about their boobs because unless your nursing how many of us plop them out every couple hours every day.... :-)
The last few months that I nursed my first baby, she would only nurse on one side. I was uneven, like 2 cup sizes, for the next 11 years....even after nursing 3 more babies! I finally got them, ummmm "fixed", a few months ago and it was the best thing I ever did!
